5 Ways To Become More Joyful

25.7.15

1. Be positive

Standard stuff, I know, but it's true. Don't focus on the negative, it only makes you upset about what went wrong and you won't focus on what went right. Then, you will be constantly unhappy because your mind instantly turns to the negative and not the positive. It becomes a habit, and you have to break it. Optimism plays a big factor in true happiness.

2. Stop comparing

Stop comparing yourself to others. It will only make you want what other's have. I compare myself to others a lot; it just makes me jealous because I do not posses the same qualities or items. I become obsessed with those things and my mind refuses to accept that I simply cannot have them.

3. Don't worry

Worrying won't stop bad stuff from happening, it just stops you from enjoying the good. Save your worrying for when you actually need to be concerned, not for a time when you have a chance to smile.

4. Surround yourself with happiness

How do you do this, you ask? Surround yourself with people who are happy and enjoy your life, not people who make you unhappy. Surround yourself with nature's beauty and things you love to do.
